His theory, and it seems most logical, is that a rodent chewed threw the mummified skin allowing the insects to enter in an unnatural opening. Whatever logic there might be in his theory, can a reasonable person conclude that it would be approximately ten days before a rodent would start to chew on the body? I don't think so!

I really dont' know the answer to that. Part of the testimony included how rodents will carry all kinds of evidence into their little habitats for nesting material..hair, fibers, bones etc.. So how long it takes for them to get to that point, and how often it happens..we'd have to go back to the testimony. I guess if the skin is already leathery when they start... that would be 3-7 days? Also, the coroner's conclusion would support the prosecution's timeline.
